The amount of bugs and tech debt boggles the mind here
hey (author here).
obviously, the rest of the content adds a lot of nuance to this statement. it's a bit provocative on purpose.
But in practice, now that I am working with it, what I needed from those tools already works, with no major bugs so far. I haven’t recreated the tools! just the parts I need to able to plug in and plug out features. Also, many of those features are usually available in great libraries (like Tiptap).
No major bugs maybe for you as a user, but I would bet there are some very serious security issues in multiple components. So I hope none of that code is reachable from the outside. Which ofc is already not true as you are processing data from the outside with llms.
I've been in the game for over 25 years and built plenty of architectures with over millions of MAU, so I am not super anxious about what I've built here. But any API I use can be breached. I would say the risk I take is about the same as using Airtable. And sadly, anything can happen. Also, I am not using it for financial transactions, mostly just deal flow material.
